Thanks for the tips.

How can I configure it so that the line referring to the slab doesn't appear? This is not the correct representation, the uppermost component is the floor.
-
I'm going to open another thread with just this question to see if anyone can help us.
-
I found out! Upstairs I was using several slabs, while downstairs it's a whole slab, so there are no offsets near the wall in the middle.
However, the correct way for the floor to be represented would be an interrupted line in the middle of the wall, is this a limitation of the vector?
-
I'd like to try the same slab, I'm insisting. Upstairs it worked, I've checked all the wall and slab configurations on both floors and they're the same.
I don't know where the trick is...
I'm trying to draw with as few elements as possible, preferably without cutting or adding volumes to slabs and walls. -

Hi Jeff,
maybe you can help me with another point, I created another slab on the lower floor, but in it the walls show the line of the upper component of the slab, I looked in all the settings but I'm not finding where I can hide this line.
The component line should not cross the wall cut.It's the same style of wall as the upper floor, it's the slab that's different, so I think it's some configuration of the slab, but I can't find where.
Thank you

There are many ways, depending on your intended outcome.
Here are a few methods:
Setting a Bottom Wall offset = to the thickness of your slab component.
Changing your layer wall elevation to correspond to the elevation of your intermediate slab component is another.
If you are using walls with components, you can change the bottom offset of the component(s).
If your wall bottoms sit at the correct elevation, you use "clip surface" to trim the slab with the walls... this invokes the special special "clip shape from slab" dialog box where you can select what slab components will be trimmed by the wall.
Will one of those suit your situation?
Yes! I did it, thank you very much.
Sorry for writing the subject in Portuguese...

How do I get the walls above the intermediate component of the slab?

Ah ok sorry I didn't read your first post carefully enough: you were already using the Add 3D Object to Slab... command!
Nevertheless, you can still do it using this command + have the components display the way you want:
Nice! Vectorworks is the best! 😉 Thank you

There is also the 'Add 3D Solids to Slab' command
This was precisely the problem: when you simply add an object to the slab, it doesn't display the components correctly. 😉
-
Perfect, the Merge structural objects solves it!
-
Is there any way I can add a 3d object to the slab and have it keep the components?
The situation I'm trying to design is a slab with different heights, but with the same finish on top.
ps.: if I make two slabs, the cut will show a line that doesn't exist separating them

Change the wall to a different Style and then change it back?
It's not ideal, but it works. I think there should be a button like there is for "Make All Attributes by Class"

Ok, I've had a bit of a long day and may be missing something, but does setting those "top" and "bottom" component offsets in a wall style actually do anything? Because it looks to me like it has no effect. If it has no effect they shouldn't be there, or they should be greyed out.
It looks like it does, but you have to draw the wall again.

( Maybe someone else can explain why editing the component offset in the wall style settings has no effect. I realise that actually I am not entirely clear how the wall style and instance settings interact. For most "styles", you can choose for each setting, whether it's determined per style or per instance. But in wall settings you aren't offered this choice. )
I think I found out by accident here, you can't edit the style and update the wall, you have to draw it again...

It can still be a wall with a style - but you can adjust that bottom offset for that one instance of the wall style.
You do this using the "components" button in the object info panel for that particular wall object, rather than editing it in the wall style.
Do you want all instances of that wall style to have that same offset of the outer component?
Perfect! I hadn't seen that even with the name of the component in gray it could be edited, now that you said it I saw the button below! Wonderful!
Just one more question, if I edit my walls, individually, is there a way for it to go back to the original style, wiping out all those changes I made and just keeping the initial style?
-
You were right, when I turn it into a wall with no style it works.
But I don't know if it's very productive to make walls without a style...😕

Is it because you are editing the wall style, rather than that wall object specifically?
I don't know, maybe that's it. Anyway, I'm working with wall styles, trying to keep all the elements with styles.
-
almost there
-
Great! The slab is finishing on the outside, that's right. But the external component of the wall is still not coming down and passing in front of the slab, even with the offset at the bottom...
-
Right. I'll send you some pictures, I've put a (yellow) cladding on the wall, so it should go down to the front of the structure.
But as I understand it, it's the configuration of the slab that defines how far the wall goes. How do I make it so that only this component of the wall goes down to the front of the slab?
-
When I have a wall that is on the facade, it is on top of the slab, so on the facade there will be a line, which in real life would be covered and would not appear. How do I make this line not appear in the vectorworks model?

Yes! Thank you!

I spent hours looking for how to do this and I hadn't seen this button!
